Demasiado tarde Tekijä: Mary Wings
Narrada en primera persona y ambientada en Boston, la historia comienza cuando Emma Victor, que atiende una línea de ayuda, recibe la llamada de una mujer que pide verla. Cuando acude a la cita, la encuentra muerta. Se inicia así una típica historia policial al mejor estilo hard boiled, donde la protagonista denota en su carácter y en su proceder claras reminiscencias chandlerianas.
Fun and interesting easy read mystery novel. Includes Lesbian PI and lesbian main characters. I am not a msytery reader but this was a will researched and interesting read. I will be reading Ms. Wings other mystery novels.
Emma Victor is short of cash. Very short of cash. It is time to get a bigger, more major assignment. The kind that pays big time. The kind that involves violence.
That assignment comes when Victor's boss, lawyer Willie Rossini, is called on to help a blackmail victim who has managed to shoot a video of Rossini's client in an evening of fierce passion. Just how dirty are they prepared to play? And can Victor put a stop to them before the whole political climate of San Francisco is affected?… (lisätietoja)
